ANKARA (AA) – The military wing of Palestinian resistance group Hamas on Friday announced the release of two American detainees “for humanitarian reasons."

In a statement, the al-Qassam Brigades' spokesman Abu Ubaida said: “In response to Qatari efforts, we released two American detainees, a mother and her daughter, for humanitarian reasons.”

The spokesman added that what the Brigades did was to prove "to the American people and the world that the claims of US President Joe Biden and his fascist administration are false and baseless."

Israeli government sources also confirmed the release of “two American hostages held by Hamas in Gaza,” according to Israeli Broadcasting Corporation.
